Re: [xtm-wg] Meeting attendance

>From my point of view, any expert on graph theory should be welcomed to the
meeting, even if only to be able to chat with us after hours. I agree that
the meeting itself will not have time for such a diversion, but I like the
opportunity to network with others face-to-face beyond the needs of the
meeting.
My 0.02 euros

From: Jean Delahousse <jean.delahousse@mondeca.com>
I understand your "no" for Pascal Auillans attending at the next meeting,
still let me explain our case :

- Pascal Auillans is a PHD student specialized on graph theory
- he has follow our work with Bordeaux University on TM / Graph theory
- he is in charge in the company of the research projects with universities
- he is not "expert" in topic map but got a good understanding
- he will keep quiet during meeting


so we may lend him the chair Benedicte didn't use this time if the group
agree.

Sincerely

jean delahousse
